Hidden openings and a cut-resistant PVC layer made them famous, while customers today most often recommend them for their minimalist design, excellent ergonomics and internal organization.

Boban Hero (XL) - Ergonomic backpack for laptops up to 17.3 inches
Your spine will thank you.
A new version with several improvements
Just as Simba succeeded Mufasa, so the original Boban backpack from 2016 got a worthy successor after 3 years.
The Hero model comes with several improvements over the classic Boban:
- Additional outer pockets
- Additional dividers
- Internal divider curtain
- New colors
- Cut-proof layer beneath the entire surface
- A slightly more modern shape.
Why does the backpack have a name?
The answer is simple: Boban is the sort of everyday companion you get attached to. Once you have seen what it can do, calling your backpack by name suddenly makes a lot more sense. A place for your essentials, and one less thing to think about before heading out.
Features
Organization
Dividers for maximum organization
You can finally separate your camera from the lens, your socks from your underwear and your lunch from your snacks… None of them has to touch until you want them to. Remove the middle dividers completely or make 3 compartments instead of 4: arrange things your way. *Dividers sold separately, you can order them here.
A place for everything you carry
This little portable storage space holds items of different shapes and sizes, from small pieces of jewelry to bulkier everyday essentials.
Privacy curtain
We live in a civilization and grew up in a culture where common sense won't let a tablet cuddle with underwear in a closed backpack.
The designers of this backpack came up with a curtain that puts a stop to the romance between underwear and 21st-century technology.
Which you can remove when you don't need it
If you need to, use the zip to separate the backpack sections. If not, just unzip it and roll it into the hidden pocket at the bottom of the backpack.
Security
Hidden pockets
4 discreet pockets keep essentials close. Click the little plus below to see where they are.

Lockable
We don't understand why they made it that way without selling an extra lock to go with it, but it is what it is. At least you can buy a small lock for a few hundred dinars. *Lock sold separately
Cut-resistant material
The cut-proof PVC layer beneath the fabric helps protect your belongings. A quick slash is not the easy shortcut a pickpocket hoped for.
And that is not all!
Waterproof material
Boban doesn't mind the rain. Just don't throw it into water—we still haven't taught it to swim.
Is the backpack waterproof or water-repellent?
This backpack is water-repellent. That means rain is fine, but you must not throw it into water. For more information, google water-repellent.
USB charging
A standard USB port lets you charge your phone without taking the power bank out of the backpack. Charge without pulling it out
How does the USB work?
You need a Power Bank, i.e. an external battery. Connect it to the cable inside the backpack and put it in any compartment you like. If your phone is running low, just connect your phone's USB cable (which you normally keep in an outer pocket) to the port on the outside of the backpack and it will start charging automatically. You don't take the Power Bank out at all. So you charge without pulling it out.
Rain cover
For a dry backpack after a rainy commute, you can buy a rain cover separately. At the office, remove the wet cover and leave it to dry, then put Boban on your desk without making a puddle.

You can slip it onto a suitcase
Put your power bank (external battery) in the compartment and charge your phone whenever you like, without opening the backpack and taking it out. So you charge without pulling it out.
With a box like this, you do not need a gift bag
The Hero XL backpack has the same box shown in this GIF. The box can be transformed to have a handle, so you do not need a bag when giving it as a gift. Eh? What an invention, what a time to be alive! We only figured it out recently too, and we have been shipping Bobans for 8 years. Ignore the monitor background; Živan forgot to hide his fantasies.

I recently became the owner of a Boban Hero XL and realized I had found the backpack I had always wanted. It has so much room that I am thinking of taking a stove or fridge along, just in case. The weight is distributed so well that I probably wouldn't feel it. Nothing but praise for the staff, and Oskar (the seller) for president :)

I bought the Bobby Backpack XL version. I am very happy, though choosing between the default and XL versions was really hard. No regrets at all: the XL really has space for all my gadgets. A Macbook Pro 15" 2019 fits perfectly, with just enough room for those who like using a laptop sleeve. The quality is excellent, and honestly I no longer worry about who is behind me on the bus :) Hats off to the Geekshop guys for their communication too; they did everything they could to help me choose a backpack for my needs.

I bought XL Boban as a gift and we're all delighted ???? The compartments are really well laid out and hold a lot; anyone who wants to carry workout gear in a backpack can easily do so! What impressed me most was the Geek shop team's professionalism throughout ordering and delivery. They replied to every email within 10 minutes, no matter when I sent it. The courier also decided to deliver later than I expected, but with the Geek shop team's help and their persistence with the courier company, everything sped up! ???? Thanks again, and as I said, see you soon—it's time to buy a women's model ????

Excellent customer support, almost unbelievably friendly. The backpack is excellent too. I bought an XL Boban and my boyfriend really liked it. A great gift for men who carry a laptop to work every day, if you want something durable, high-quality and a little different.

Great backpack. I bought the large Boban the other day — excellent. Extremely professional service and fast delivery. Highly recommended; I have yet to hear of anyone regretting ordering these backpacks.

Nothing but praise for Oskar and Geekshop - the best investment ever!!!
EDIT: Almost a year later, I got a new addition, Bobica, and I couldn't be happier. Oskar has once again shown what an absolute legend he is!!!

I can hardly imagine my freelance life without my wild zebra-print Boban. ???? I cannot decide whether it is prettier or more practical! And Živan kept my Black Friday discount when they restocked — legend. My husband got a Hero for his birthday: it is so big I feel I could fit comfortably inside along with the 17inch laptop. ???? Have not tried yet. If I manage it, a special review is coming ????

Excellent backpack and excellent service from Oskar! He's happy to explain anything! I bought and paid for the backpack online, and everything arrived the next day exactly as agreed. When I pack my essentials in it—water, an umbrella, a few bits and pieces, a diary, cards and other small items—it almost feels like I'm carrying nothing on my back; without exaggerating, it's as if you'd put in 200 grams. With a laptop, it feels like just another kilo has been added, even though the laptop itself weighs 2.20.
The backpack holds a lot and has compartments for all sorts of things. Besides a laptop and charger, you can comfortably fit headphones, a mouse, something to eat and a laptop cooling pad. Once it is packed, you still feel the weight, but far less than with ordinary backpacks found in shops. It is miles ahead of sports backpacks too, so it is ideal for students — for everyone, really! Highly recommended, and the price is very fair for what this backpack offers!
